I locked my keys in the car, but my partner went away for the weekend and took the spare keys! How do I open an Alto door without a key?

Getting locked out of the car can be frustrating. Unfortunately, the only DIY options you have could damage the car. So, while you could try to jimmy the lock with a coat hanger, your best solution is to call a locksmith.
On average, a locksmith will charge between $50 and $150 to open your car door. That said, the cost may depend on:
  • The distance they need to travel,
  • the type of car you have, and
  • whether or not they need any special tools.
To make sure you’re covered for the next lockout, get roadside assistance with
